Wind Chime
How loaded idle chat through stress becomes,
When plainest meaning's metaphors are wronged
and new associations strung
now frameworks; simple carriers they've become.
When complicated is the talk
which building, building bottled wrought,
some deeper problem tensely lies,
in trivial words and trivial signs.
And through some saintly gentle murmur,
that quiet sound is growing fervour
and clanking through the peaceful quiet -
through that stillness in the night
to compete with rippled sighs of trees
as conflict's clatter - interweaves.
